因为很想念自己走丢的猫咪,所以经常也在神经质的想她是不是也会想我?
于是在雅虎上查找猫咪记忆力有多久的答案,看到了这篇文章,泪如雨下。
Many years ago I adopted two kittens a couple of months apart. We named them Sissy and Myron. They were very close, and when one was missing the other was frantic.
Sissy used to climb up into a hole which led to a space beneath the rafters from under the basement stairs. The hole was too small for Myron, so he used to sit below the hole for hours on the floor, crying, until she came out and joined him again. Sissy died at the age of five of a congenital illness.
For days Myron wandered the house, sat below the stairs, crying for her. Then he seemed to forget. We got other cats for him to be with. Life moved on.
Twelve years later, I heard Myron crying below that little hole. He hadn't done that since Sissy died. I went down there to get him, and he just gazed at me, crying. I picked him up and took him back upstairs, shutting the door behind me.
He sat at the shut door for the rest of the day. Just sat there, sniffing at the bottom of the door, or hitting the door knob trying to get back into the basement. The next day he was very weak. He died a few days later of kidney disease which we had been treating him for for about two years.
In my experience, cats can remember for a lifetime. |
